In this Optimistic Beacon episode, Ray shines a warm light on farro — the ancient supergrain packed with plant-based protein, fiber, magnesium, and rich, nutty flavor. You’ll learn why farro is ideal for active, health-focused living, and you’ll hear how this timeless grain supports gut health, steady energy, and overall well-being.

Then Ray shares an easy, healthy, and absolutely delicious Tex-Mex Farro Bowl recipe with garlic, poblano pepper, smoky chipotle, black beans, and bright lime. It’s the perfect mix of comfort and clean eating — with a little South Texas kick.

If you love food that nourishes your body and lifts your spirit, this episode is for you.
